Because the finals work has to be arranged in advance, all the judges are in the judging panel at this time.
A staff member ran into the main judge's office in a panic, a little out of breath.
"Oops, something happened!"
The chief judges in the office all turned their attention to the staff at the door, each with a stern look on their face.
"What are you so nervous about? What could be the big deal? Speak slowly."
Li Tongyan was the oldest among the chief judges and was the first to stand up and scold him.
The staff member took several deep breaths and finally felt much better.
With a sad look on his face, he pointed outside.
"The gate of the jury was blocked by at least two to three thousand people. Even the road outside was blocked by vehicles, making it impassable."
Li Tongyan frowned and said hesitantly: "Please tell me clearly, was it because of the traffic jam that someone blocked the door of the jury, or did someone block the door of the jury on purpose?"
The staff member curled his lips helplessly: "They must have come here to block the judging panel on purpose!"
Dai Mingli also stood up at this time, with a serious look on his face.
"What a nonsense. This calligraphy and painting competition is taken very seriously. Who has the guts to come here to cause trouble?
Let’s go out and take a look, if it’s unreasonable, please inform the Governor’s Office directly!”
The other judges nodded one after another, stood up and followed Dai Mingli out.
As soon as he left the door, Dai Mingli saw Xia Shutian and Pang Heqiang running toward him in a panic.
Both of them looked at Dai Mingli with complicated expressions, and there was sweat on their foreheads.
Dai Mingli frowned and was already blocked by two people.
"Teacher Dai, come here, I have something to discuss with you!"
Xia Shutian said with a stern look, as if he had no confidence.
Dai Mingli felt depressed and had a bad feeling in his heart. After hesitating for a moment, he looked at Li Tongyan.
"Teacher Li, take them out for a look first, I have something to deal with!"
When Li Tongyan led the people away, Xia Shutian opened his mouth with a sad face, showing an embarrassed look.
"Teacher Dai, you must not go out!"
Dai Mingli's heart skipped a beat and his eyes widened.
"What do you mean? Why can't I go out?"
Pang Heqiang looked around and saw that there was no one around, and then said: "Teacher Dai, those people are all here because of Fan Tingting's incident!
They said we were operating behind closed doors and wanted justice."
Xia Shutian nodded repeatedly: "Yes, so anyone can go out, but you must not go out.
I heard someone naming you and scolding you. It would be too dangerous for you to go out now!"
"And it's quite dangerous. There are more than two thousand people there, and they are still young people in their twenties!
These young people are so passionate that they can do anything without considering the consequences!"
Dai Mingli's complexion suddenly turned bad, and his body felt a little weak.
He never imagined that a trivial matter that he thought was not a big deal would turn into such a bad situation!
To be fair, Dai Mingli does have a guilty conscience.
Although it was Xia Shutian and the others who eliminated Fan Tingting and the others, it was also with his acquiescence.
He was at fault in this matter.
Do you want to publicly apologize to Fan Tingting and then admit your mistake?
This thought flashed through Dai Mingli's mind, but was quickly suppressed. 168 Library
No, absolutely not!
That means a lifetime of fame has been wasted. How can you continue to work in the circle of calligraphy and painting in the future?
Since you are wrong, you can only stick to it. No matter how many people question you, you must withstand the pressure!
After all, they are the judges and have the final right of interpretation.
As long as several shortcomings in Fan Tingting's work are pointed out, she can still be judged to have failed.
That's it, no compromise!
There was a hint of coldness in Dai Mingli's eyes. For the sake of his own future, he could only do something unconscionable this time.
The people who care about Fan Tingting are not just her fan alliance.
There are also three master-level calligraphers and painters like Qi Yuanzheng.
In the hearts of the three of them, Fan Tingting has long been regarded as a dark horse in the finals, and they have great expectations.
So after the finalists were announced, the three people couldn't wait to ask Yan Kelin to open the official website.
"According to the unspoken rules, this time around thirty potential players will be identified and announced at the front.
Take a look and see where Fan Tingting is ranked. I would like to see how good the judges are this time!"
Qi Yuanzheng said with a smile.
Yan Kelin agreed and searched at the front position, but his brows gradually wrinkled.
Because he had already seen the top 50 positions, but did not see Fan Tingting's name.
Did he miss it? Based on the principle of caution, Yan Kelin read it from the beginning again.
This time it was finally confirmed that Fan Tingting's name was not among the top fifty.
So he smiled bitterly: "Teacher, the rules may have changed. The rankings are in no particular order. Fan Tingting's name is not among the top fifty."
Qi Yuanzheng looked displeased: "It's definitely not that the rules have been changed. I was a participant in formulating the rules and I specifically mentioned this matter.
This is done to allow us to focus on certain players more purposefully and reduce the workload."
Feng Zhitong laughed at the side: "If that's the case, it means that this year's judges are not good!
Fan Tingting didn't even make it into the top 50, which only proves that there is something wrong with their vision."
Luo Mingdao hummed and looked at Feng Zhitong meaningfully.
"Old Feng, when you said that, you included your disciple Dai Mingli.
If I remember correctly, he is also one of the judges this time, right? And he is also the main judge!"
Feng Zhiyi looked serious: "The calligraphy and painting competition is about skills, not relationships.
If it works, it works, if it doesn’t work, it doesn’t work. Even my disciples must seek truth from facts.”
Qi Yuanzheng nodded solemnly: "I admire Lao Feng for this, so if I ask you to be the chief judge, no one will be dissatisfied."
During this time, Yan Kelin quickly reviewed the list, and then the surprise on his face became more and more intense.
From beginning to end, I didn't see Fan Tingting's name.
Not only Fan Tingting, but the three teenagers with her are also on the list.
In order to prevent missing, Yan Kelin began to enter Fan Tingting's competition number again.
The failed message was clearly visible in front of his eyes, and Yan Kelin couldn't help but exclaim.
"How did this happen? One of them was actually rated as unqualified. Are you blind?"
Yan Kelin, who has always been mild-tempered, actually uttered a curse word. You can imagine how angry he was.
The faces of the three grandmasters suddenly turned gloomy, and they all looked towards Yan Kelin.
